Season 13 Weekdays (from Tuesday 1 June)

Food reality show MasterChef Australia (2009-now) served up such a smorgasbord of tasty kitchen treats with season 12 that DStv has rushed to plate up season 13 while it’s still airing Down Under. And for good reason, says judge and professional chef Jock Zonfrillo. “I was staggered by the talent as a first-time judge in season 12. I had watched the series to get some idea of what I was getting into, but nothing could have prepared me when I was here in front of the contestants. When the producers asked if I wanted to come back, they couldn’t have handed me the pen fast enough to sign the contract.” Jock is back with his co-judges – food critic and author Melissa Leong and Andy Allen, who won season 4 of the show in 2012 – and they’re famished!
